- You will receive an email from the system alerting you that your draft has been approved.
The offer details page in IZEA Flex will show the draft approved by the Marketer. This is the version that you should use for your story post on your publishing date.
Step 2: Publish Your Content From Your Mobile Device
Before you submit your final content to the marketer, you will need to publish it on your Instagram.
Please note: Make sure that you check the publishing date for your content before posting.
- Log in to your Instagram account on your mobile device.
- From here, create a new Story.
- Referencing the draft content the Marketer approved in the system, be sure to include FTC required disclosure (#ad or #sponsored) and any other required elements (mentions, hashtags, etc) the Marketer has requested.
- After you have created and posted your Story live to your Instagram, tap the
icon to save your image(s) or video(s) to your mobile device.
Step 3: Upload & Submit Your Story Insights
On the IZEA Flex offer details page, you will be able to submit your final content along with the screenshots of your Story insights for each frame that you have published.
